Incoming pricing changes to League and TFT
TL;DR: We’re updating our global pricing on July 16.
- Several regions will see increased RP prices to account for new tax laws, currency shifts, inflation, and consistency across regions.
- From July 2 through July 16 all regions will receive extra “bonus RP” on all RP purchases.
- We’re also making adjustments to TFT mobile’s pricing to bring it closer inline with TFT Desktop
At the beginning of each year, Riot assesses the current state of global pricing and makes adjustments to account for changes in currency inflation, taxation, and regional discrepancies. Here's last year's post, for reference. We normally enact these changes around March or April, but navigating challenges with COVID-19 delayed this year's changes by a few months.
We’re notifying you now so you have visibility into the upcoming changes should you wish to purchase RP now before the changes take place. We’re also going to run an “Extra Bonus RP” promotion from July 2 until July 16 so you can stock up on RP.
Below is a breakdown of the upcoming changes.The price adjustments were calculated based on currency fluctuations that occurred in 2019 and new regional taxes that were introduced in the beginning of 2020.
League of Legends & Teamfight Tactics Desktop
RP price changes
- LATAM
- While currency fluctuations alone would only call for slight adjustments to the price of RP, many countries enacted new taxation laws on digital goods which have had a more significant impact. Below is an estimate of the change you’ll see on the cost of RP in the store for both factors combined:
- Mexico: +19% (VAT Portion: 16%)
- Colombia: +11%
- Costa Rica: +16% (VAT Portion: 13%)
- Chile: +16% (VAT Portion: 19%)
- Uruguay:+ 11%
- Peru: +5%
- USD LATAM: 5.5%
- While currency fluctuations alone would only call for slight adjustments to the price of RP, many countries enacted new taxation laws on digital goods which have had a more significant impact. Below is an estimate of the change you’ll see on the cost of RP in the store for both factors combined:
- Brazil
- Due to inflation and devaluation of the Brazilian Real to the USD, we’ll be seeing a 9% increase in RP Costs
Extra Bonus RP
When we release price increase announcements, we also try to run extra bonus RP promotions. For 2020, this will be a 100% increase to the bonus RP you get from buying RP in larger increments.
- Example: The 1840 RP bundle grants 420 bonus RP
This promotion activates July 2 around 6:00 AM AEST (change may take an hour to complete) and lasts until July 16, 6:00 AM AEST when the price changes above go into effect.
